I've gotten pretty interested in these things, and considering one for a daily driver. I think the styling is timeless, the interiors are beautiful and well crafted, and they are great performers in SL55, SL65, and SL600 guise. Yes the maintenance costs can be high, but I DIY and have done a lot of reading on the ABC suspension in particular. Nothing too crazy there, and you can always switch to a full coilover and sway bar conventional suspension. I've now driven an SL65 and SL55, both pieces of crap, but really like the cars overall. The SL65 TT V12 was freaking addictive, great sound with diesel torque and smooth like a rotary. Anybody have any personal experience to share?
